The other day we discussed the Donald Trump administration potentially taking shape with Washington insiders, political lobbyists and a guy who runs an alt right website that masquerades as a source for news. All this of course when the president-elect promised to “drain the swamp” of the United States‘ capital.
Well some of that earlier speculation rang true today as the Oompa Loompa-in-chief named RNC chairman Reince Priebus as the new White House chief of staff and Steve “I don’t want my kids going to school with Jews” Bannon as chief strategist.

Nothing like draining that swamp and filling it back up with a Washington insider and Republican “establishment” guy like Priebus and a possible white supremacist in Bannon. I can almost give a pass on Priebus IF a base of your campaign didn’t center around ending Washington corruption. I mean wasn’t this one of the big reasons why the Trumpkins were so adamant to vote against Hillary Clinton?
Meanwhile, if I was starting an alt right website that dismissed the problems of minorities in this country then Bannon would be my man. I’m getting the feeling however something like that isn’t anywhere in the constitution.
Bannon's ex-wife swore in court in 2007 that he “didn’t want the girls going to school with Jews…He said he doesn’t like Jews…"
